The 3D View shows a three-dimensional plot of the measured PDA data with Time and Wavelength being the horizontal axes, and Absorbance being the vertical axis (also indicated by color).

The view also contains both markers (cursor lines), though they may be hidden beneath the surface of the data, being visible only from one side of the 3D View. Projection of the plot is always centered on the crossing point of the markers. The plot can be moved, rotated, and zoomed using the mouse.

In the Move mode () holding the left mouse button and dragging the mouse moves the plot with the cursor. Note that the markers move as well, as the view is always centered on the crossing point. The Move mode is set by the Smart Move Graph Mode command from the context menu.

In the Rotate mode () holding the left mouse button and dragging the mouse rotates the plot. Moving the mouse horizontally rotates the plot along the vertical (absorbance) axis, moving the mouse vertically rotates the plot along horizontal axis of the view. The Rotate mode is set by the Rotate Graph Mode command from the context menu or by holding the Shift key while moving the mouse in Move mode.

In the Zoom mode () holding the left mouse button and dragging the mouse zooms the plot. Moving towards the center of the view shrinks the plot while moving away from the center enlarges in. The Zoom mode is set by the Zoom Graph Mode function from the context menu or by holding the Ctrl key while moving the mouse in Move mode. The plot can be also zoomed in any mode using the mouse wheel.

The Restore Default View context menu command restores the default projection settings of the 3D View pane.
